tion was reached. The sample is from a small urban
area in the south of Spain and cannot be generalized to
a bigger population and cross-culturally. Participants
of the interviews did not have any direct contact or
experience with the AAL technology they were inter-
viewed about, nor about the proposed privacy filters,
they were simply given explanations of it. However,
this study has been insightful in grasping what older
adults understand about the concept of privacy and
AAL technology as the first stage. This leads us to
future studies with a more sophisticated methodology
and integrated at-hand experience with the proposed
AAL technologies.
